2x trees outside 6&8 Honey Holme Nn6 9BQ - Branches overhanging pathway close to head height (6ft persons) branches over hanging front garden and driveway

Reported via mobile in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 19:54, Thursday 15 January 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8697218.

I have never made a complaint or requested for the tree(s) to be cut back but over the last few years they have grown outwards considerably. The branches now over hang front gardens and driveways. During spring and summer the cars are regularly needing to be cleaned due to bird mess and tree sap. During recent storms their has been squeaking/rubbing sounds from the branches and due to many of the thinner branch ends on the ground in the morning I am concerned for the safety of some branches to people walking by. I have noticed in the last few months other trees around the village being cut back and wondering if this could be completed for these two.

Thank you
